33. I want them all (please collect it)
There are many cats and dogs in the animal shelter in Candorfer, with 45 stray cats of all kinds and 76 large and small dogs.
It's no wonder that the Ron trio easily took three dogs from here, and the shelter is under a lot of pressure to operate, and now it is facing a shortage of funds.
The Tree of Life's demand for life spiritual power is as much as possible, and Yang Shubao's choice is: "I want them all." ”
Lao Wu asked vigilantly: "Do you really want to adopt them?" Don't fool me, we have to protect the reputation of Chinese abroad, if you mess with it, then ......."
He didn't say the rest, and it was not interesting to say it.
"I could have adopted them, all of them, but not only for charitable purposes, but also for business reasons," Yang said. Don't look at me like that, it's not a dog meat restaurant, it's a pet shop, I have two indigenous African friends who are very good at training animals, and I want to bring these cats and dogs back and train them to be well-behaved and obedient, and then find new owners for them. ”
Lao Wu shook his head: "Brother, your business is not reliable, who buys adult cats and dogs as pets?"
Yang Shubao said: "If I can't sell them, I will raise them to death, and I will never pit you." ”
When the two were very close at the beginning of the training, Wu Chenjie roughly understood his temper, so he hesitated after getting his promise, he thought about it and said, "I'll go talk to the stationmaster." ”
The station's director is a native South African, Sajka Merlin, a middle-aged white woman.
Wu Chenjie brought her out after chatting with her, and Merlin said to him: "I heard Wu say, you want to adopt all cats and dogs, this is OK, but I have one condition, I will arrange personnel to check the adoption situation from time to time, if you violate the adoption agreement, I will send you to court." ”
Yang Shubao said happily: "I promise." ”
Merlin carefully inquired about his conditions, background, identity, etc., and learned that Yang Shubao studied animal and environmental protection, or was a highly educated talent in China's aid to Africa, and she was slowly satisfied.
When all was settled, she took off the silver cross from her neck and gave it to him solemnly, saying, "Then I thank you on behalf of these poor little wanderers, God bless you, and may his glory always shine in your heart." ”
The female stationmaster's words and manners of giving gifts flattered Yang Shubao, especially Wu Chenjie added: "This cross is platinum." ”
Yang Shubao hurriedly refused: "Then this gift is too precious, respected lady stationmaster, I can't accept her." ”
Merlin smiled faintly: "My family is a gold mine, you can take it." ”
Yang Shubao had nothing to say.
Wu Chenjie took him to go through the adoption procedures, and Yang Shubao asked, "Is your stationmaster's family really a gold mine?"
"Yes. He pulled open the collar and showed Yang Shubao another white gold cross pendant.
Yang Shubao said strangely: "In this way, how can your ambulance station have the problem of lack of funds?"
Wu Chenjie said: "First, the gold mine of the Merlin family does not belong to her; second, people can't put this public welfare undertaking on others if they have money, right? The most important reason is that Ms. Merlin wants to protect wild animals, not stray cats and dogs, she actually wants to send all the cats and dogs away for a long time, but there is nowhere to send them. ”
He further explained that cats are sensitive and dogs are irritable, and they are very restless after being adopted, howling day and night, which affects the wildlife in the shelter, and some time ago a female antelope was frightened by the sound of dogs barking and had a miscarriage.
In addition, the concept of animal protection personnel is also different, and mainstream wildlife animal conservationists advocate using resources for wild animals that really need rescue, such as elephants injured by poachers, antelopes hit by cars, and infected leopards.
Now the public thinks that they should protect all poor animals, such as stray cats and dogs, in fact, this should be the work of animal protection organizations, not wild animal protection organizations.
Wildlife activists don't like this, because the wildlife they protect is part of the ecosystem, and in the final analysis, they are maintaining the ecosystem, and there is no doubt that stray cats and dogs are not part of it.
It's just that the public doesn't understand this, and ordinary people will send stray cats and dogs over when they find them, so the shelter has no way to take them in, otherwise they can't stand the pressure of public opinion if they are left alone.
The shelter in Kandorfer is very professional, and the cats and dogs have been cleaned up well after being adopted, at least in good health.
The shelter has set up a file for every dog and cat, which contains specific records of revaccination for them, and their physical condition has also been checked, all of which are recorded in the file, saving Yang Shubao a lot of trouble.
The adopted dogs are all large dogs, Golden Retriever Terrier, Rottweiler, Husky are considered small in it, and there are also German Shepherds, Red Bone Hunting Raccoons, Belgian Horse Dogs, mainly these six breeds.
Yang Shubao understands that there are many wild animals in Africa, and the locals often have large animal worship plots, such as teddy dogs, fawn dogs, and poodles There is no market here.
He went to see the adopted cats, including blue, ragdoll, Siamese, exotic shorthair and other popular breeds in the world, and he also saw two savannah cats.
After reading it, he was quite surprised: "Many cats and dogs in it are very valuable, like those two savannah cats in our country, how can they cost 10,000 yuan?
Wu Chenjie said helplessly: "That's right, there are really breeds of cats and dogs here, and I estimate that they all have competition-level bloodlines." In fact, they are not from Kandorfer itself, they are basically from Eswatini. ”
Eswatini has one of the highest per capita GDP in Africa, pursues a free-market economy, attaches importance to the use of private and foreign capital and encourages exports, resulting in uneven internal development and a wide disparity between rich and poor in society.
Those who can afford to keep pets are rich people, and the cats and dogs they buy naturally have famous bloodlines.
However, liking pets and having pets are not the same thing, many people keep them for a period of time, and then abandon their pets, which is the main reason why cats and dogs live on the streets.
After handing over the files, these cats and dogs belong to Yang Shubao.
He originally wanted to transport the cats and dogs in Kandolfo with a cattle transport truck, but he didn't need it, so Merlin sent Buddha to the west, and directly arranged a transport truck from the Wild Animal Protection Association to transport the cats and dogs, and at the same time inspected Yang Shubao's breeding environment.
Wu Chenjie is responsible for leading the team, and he is familiar with Yang Shubao, so Merlin will let him be responsible for this matter, and he will be held accountable if something happens in the future.
For this reason, Wu Chenjie gave Lao Yang a resentful look.
Lao Yang comforted him: "Don't worry, I will definitely be responsible for these cats and dogs." ”
Wu Chenjie said: "You are too worried about this, after the cats and dogs were sent, we have been sterilized, you can do whatever you want, they will not look for you to be responsible." ”
